One of the more appealing aspects of fantasy football is competing against your friends and colleagues. Playing with random people online is doable, but it limits the amount of insults you can toss around. If some stranger calls me a “dumb, lowlife ginger” on the message board I’d wonder how he found my identity. When…

Another week, another 14 point comeback victory in the second half for the Eagles. There is only one superior being that can be thanked for Philadelphia’s undefeated start: Nick Foles. Foles is, without a doubt, the best QB in the league today; and probably ever. His form, throwing power, and speed are unmatched by not…

RG3, Moreno, Desean, Green, Charles, Mathews. No that’s not a starting fantasy lineup; those are the guys that were hurt in a hellish Week 2 as abuse off the field seemed to carry over to the games. The fallout remains to be seen, but the Redskins looked better without RG3, the Chiefs don’t stand a chance…

Long time Eagles Fan and bad decision maker, Kyle Baker, approached me with a healthy wager regarding tonight’s game between Philadelphia and Indianapolis. The bet is simple: If the Eagles win, Baker wins. If the Colts win, I win. But what’s on the line? It can’t be money because a lot of my funds are…

Last year I opened my NFL Power Rankings with “That’s gotta be one of the wildest opening weeks in NFL history.” Watching NFL Red Zone during the early slate of games was almost too much to handle with 10 concurrent games. 3 game winning field goals and some wild swings undoubtedly ruined survivor pools, bets, teasers,…

Frank Caliendo was at it again on Mike and Mike with a Morgan Freeman inspired rendition of LeBron James’ letter to SI.com. It starts funny, but it’s so good you almost get sucked just like when Shawshank Redemption is playing on AMC. The YouTube video has since been removed, so here’s the original source on…

Sean Rohani created a parody of ESPN’s World Cup coverage team in Brazil. No matter the soccer news of the day, this video is what I’ve been picturing in my head for the past month — especially the sage Landon Donovan. Thank you Sean.

Just ask Dustin Johnson. In the 2010 PGA Championship at Whistling Straits leading Martin Kaymer and Bubba Watson in a playoff, Johnson grounded his club in a sandy area outside the ropes that had been trampled on by spectators. It so happened that he was considered in a sand bunker. He would receive a two-stroke penalty knocking…

The Crash Reel is the inspiring story of snowboarder Kevin Pearce’s rise to the top of the international snowboarding ranks, and the traumatic brain injury that changed his life. 15 years of outstanding footage are packed into the movie, but the choice of music throughout is a key supplement. The documentary was released in 2013…

So maybe declaring this a weekly post in the first installment was a literally overeager. (A month later..) here’s the second Baker’s Dozen. Joshua James – Coal War Featured in Sons of Anarchy Divine Fits – Would That Not Be Nice The Black Keys – Little Black Submarines Clear influences by Led Zeppelin’s Stairway to…

Once a week or every other, I’m going to post a Baker’s Dozen of songs. The songs in each playlists will likely vary in style to appeal to multiple tastes. Also, I’ll provide some background on the a couple songs like what commercial, movie, or TV show its been in. These week is now public…
